This season HASTPA has energized the event with fresh ideas brought about with an experience of 7 years pedaling through the most gruesome terrains of the Himalayas. We have an advanced route, better cycling conditions, and revamped structured management, for an altogether distinct and improved cycling adventure.

Ride through uncharted interiors, hike through deep forests, soak in the sun and experience nature all around. Pedal your way through gut wrenching uphills, dangerous downhills, village back roads, beautiful meadows, thick vegetation, jeep tracks and savor real mountain biking as you live through 9 days of adventure racing covering 500 km/380 miles, 3750 mt above sea level and take on the Himalayan Challenge.

The adventure commences in Shimla as the race is flagged off on 29th September and (the registrations / briefings are done the day before). The next 8 days put you through obstacles and test your perseverance. Gear up for an inconceivable journey through the grandiose of the Himalayas.
